2009 / 2010 Coaches



Tucker Youth Soccer Association enlists the expertise of both certified professional coaches and experienced certified volunteer coaches in our Academy and Select programs. The combination of these two sources provide excellent coaching for players who wish to compete on the next level and could benefit from this kind of leadership, while keeping the cost affordable. Many of the coaches have been involved in the recreation program (some for many years), so the players already know them. This season, we welcome several new coaches: Merck Smith is back, coaching the boys U10 academy team and TYSA welcomes the addition of Stephen Paul (coaching U11 boys), Charlie Watson (coaching U14 girls) and Daymeon Corey (coaching U17 girls), all of these three coaches formerly of the Stone Mountain Youth Soccer Association (SMYSA). This up and coming season promises to be a great one!

Academy

The Academy Level Program is offered for the U9, U10, U11 & U12 age groups. It is a stepping-stone to the select program. The commitment level is more than that required in the recreational program, but less than that required of the select program. Similar to the recreational level program, it is open to players of all skill levels.

Select

The Select Program is offered for ages 13-18. This level of play requires a tryout where qualifying players are selected by the head coaches. The Select program is our highest competitive level where our players will face the best of other leagues in and around the state of Georgia.
